How to Create Affirmations That Will Take Any—or EVERY—Area

of Your Life to a Level 10!

“It’s the repetition of affirmations that leads to belief. Once that belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen.”

—Muhammad Ali, former Heavyweight Champion

“You will be a failure, until you impress the subconscious with the conviction you are a success. This is done by making an affirmation, which clicks for you.”

—Florence Scovel Shinn, Author, The Game of Life and How to Play It

“I AM THE GREATEST!” Muhammad Ali affirmed these words over and over again—until he became them. Affirmations are one of the most effective tools for quickly becoming the person you need to be to achieve everything you want in your life. Affirmations allow you to design and then develop the mindset (thoughts, beliefs, focus) that you need to take any area of your life to the next level.

It is no coincidence that some of the most successful people in our society—people like Will Smith, Jim Carrey, Suze Orman, Muhammad Ali, Oprah, Darren Hardy, and many more—have all been vocal about their belief that positive self-talk and the use of affirmations has helped them on their journey to success and wealth.

Now is opportunity to start doing what the world’s most successful people do and begin implementing the life-changing power of daily affirmations into your life!

THE WRONG WAY TO WRITE AFFIRMATIONS “I am a millionaire.” ß No, you’re not.

“I weigh 120 pounds.” ß No, you don’t. “I have achieved all of my goals this year.” ß No, you haven’t.

FIVE GUIDELINES TO CREATE “LEVEL 10 SUCCESS” AFFIRMATIONS

1) Begin with your ideal Level 10 ________________ in mind Remember that the purpose of an affirmation is to produce an ideal outcome. What is your Level 10 outcome?

2) Start your affirmation with a commitment to specific ________________ Writing an affirmation that merely affirms what you want without affirming what you are committed to do is not optimally effective and can even be counter-productive by tricking your mind into thinking it’s going to happen.

3) Include the ________________ of your activity Clearly state when and how often will you take the action necessary to achieving your Level 10 outcome.

4) Include a ________________ ________________ Just like when setting goals, having a target date gives you a reference point to measure your progress.

5) Read your affirmations everyday, both ________________ and before ________________ Reading your affirmations in the morning focuses your conscious mind, reminding you what’s most important to you and what you are committed to doing to make it your reality. Reading affirmations right before bed more effectively programs your subconscious mind, because your conscious mind shuts down and doesn’t distract you.

“Doing affirmations is not hard work. It can be a joyous experience as you lift the burden of old negative beliefs and release them back to the nothingness from whence they came. Just because we've believed something negative about

ourselves or about our lives does not mean that there is any truth to it.” —Louise Hay, bestselling author and founder of Hay House Publishing

True Success = Loving My Family, Loving My Work, Living My Purpose, Being Present & Grateful for Every Moment. TOP GOALS—I will prioritize my tasks each day and focus ONLY on those that achieve my 3-‐5 TOP GOALS this year.

1) Write and Publish The Miracle Morning! (Get over my fears! It is my responsibility to share TMM with the world!) 2) Add value daily/weekly to my Coaching Clients and Online Communities (Email, Facebook, etc.) 3) Limit my speeches to 36 total (3/month) so I can be home more with my family.

PURPOSE—My life’s purpose is to ADD VALUE to the lives of others, which starts with achieving everything I want in my own life and never settling for less than I can be, do, or have so that I can pay it forward and learn (through experience) how to help others to achieve everything they want.

FAMILY—I am a devoted husband and father, and my #1 priority is always supporting my family.

QUANTUM LEAP—To make 2012 my best year ever and take my life to the NEXT LEVEL, I must (actively) brainstorm, get out of my comfort zone, take risks, and take action. I must focus on goals/projects outside the realm of what I am currently doing, like making TMM a NY Times best-‐seller, getting a TV Show, making the Taking Life Head On! movie, etc.

INFINITE WISDOM—All things are possible when I actively connect to the Infinite Wisdom available at all times, through the power of prayer. Remember, my ‘thinking’ brain is VERY limited by my physical, mental, & emotional limitations. But when I “actively” connect with the IW that is available to me at all times—that is when MIRACLES are possible.

FINANCIAL ABUNDANCE/CONTRIBUTION—My #1 financial commitment in 2012 is to EARN $200,000—on my way to $1,00,000/year—and SAVE/INVEST ½ of every paycheck so I can provide security for my family and give 10% back to those less fortunate. Also, the more money I earn and save, the greater the impact I can have on others, and I am just as capable of becoming extraordinarily wealthy as any other person. Also, I am committed to continuing to live below my means.

AUTHENTICITY—Give up being perfect for being authentic. I won’t make everyone happy. Some will judge me, criticize me and talk behind my back, while others will praise, honor, respect me, spread good will about me and pray for my continued success. Everyone who truly knows me appreciates me because of the value I give to others. They support me financially, with connections & resources to bring me to my goals. I am grateful for these people. I work for them, and no one else.

PRODUCTIVITY—To maximize productivity, I will schedule 3-‐5 hour blocks or ½-‐days of singularly focused attention on ONE activity/project, rather than trying to switch tasks every 60 minutes. This is an AOI for me.

THE MIRACLE MORNING—I will live TMM to the fullest everyday to be a living example for others and present to the benefits of it. TMM is my greatest gift to the world & I must finish the book ASAP (Write for QUANTITY & edit later), because people need it. I’m an excellent writer when I don’t worry about being perfect, focus on being authentic, and open myself up to the source of IW from which my brilliance and wisdom flows.

SPEAKING—It is my responsibility to actively market my speaking so that the world can benefit from my message. Delegate this to one of my assistants, but work closely with them until they’re confident.

VIP SUCCESS COACHING—My #1 professional responsibility is to my clients, to always give them 100% of my attention & focus, and never take for granted ALL that they are investing in me. ($/time/hope, etc.) Get better & grow as a Coach! Develop the habit of doing more than I’m paid or expected to do. (Text/Email Encouragement, Send Out Cards, Books, etc.)

REST & RELAXATION—Taking regularly scheduled periods of R&R are crucial to my happiness, health, & success. Trips and vacations provide me with new perspective & ideas by removing me from my day-‐to-‐day routine & environment, and allow me to share carefree timelessness with Sophie and Ursula.

REFLECTION—I will invest time in reflection, gaining a deeper perspective by asking questions like: What am I doing well that I need to acknowledge myself for? What can I be doing better? What am I not even thinking about doing that I should be?

OVERCOMING FEAR & WORRY—Fear & worry are a misuse of my intelligence and imagination. Only think positive, self-‐affirming and confidence-‐inspiring thoughts. If I am to use my imagination, only use it to imagine myself doing something great. Besides, there literally is nothing to fear or worry about, because I cannot fail—only learn & grow.

FIRST: I know that I have the ability within me to create the life I desire, and I am making the decision to make this day, and everyday, the best day of my life. I believe in my ability and the limitless potential that lies within each of us; therefore I commit to persistent, continuous action toward the attainment of my goals and dreams, and I promise to render such action each and every day. SECOND: I believe in the power of Visualization and realize the dominating thoughts of my mind will eventually manifest themselves into my actions, habits, and behaviors, and gradually transform themselves into physical reality; therefore I will consciously focus my thoughts daily upon thinking of the person I intend to become, thereby creating in my mind a clear mental picture of my best self, creating and living my best life. THIRD: I know one of the greatest truths is that my outer world is a reflection of my inner world, and through the power of daily affirmations and continuing personal development, I am programming my mind, body and spirit for success. Any desire that I persistently hold in my mind will eventually seek expression through some practical means of manifestation or attraction; therefore I will devote 10 minutes daily to reading, feeling, and believing in my affirmations. FOURTH: I have clearly defined and written down a description of my major dreams & goals in life, which I will create progress toward on a daily basis, and I will never give up because I know that I am developing sufficient self-‐confidence for their attainment by taking steps in a positive direction each day. FIFTH: I fully realize that I can sustain no success unless it is founded in truth and integrity; therefore, I will engage in no activity that is selfish or that does not benefit all whom it affects. I will succeed by attracting to myself the forces I wish to use, and the cooperation of other people. I will inspire others to help me because of my willingness to help others. I will eliminate hatred, envy, jealousy, selfishness, and cynicism, by developing love for all humanity, because I know that a negative attitude toward others can never bring me success. I will cause others to believe in me because I will believe in them and in myself. I will sign my name to this formula, commit it to memory, and repeat it aloud once a day, with full faith that it will gradually influence my thoughts and actions so that I will become the self-‐reliant, successful person that I know I can be. Today and everyday, I choose to create the best day of my life. * I sign my name to this life changing affirmation and commit to reading it aloud every morning when I wake up and again every night before I go to bed.

I CHOOSE TODAY to follow through with my commitments. I will do what I said I would do, by when I said I would do it. In honoring my word, people respect me and I respect myself. I will not make everyone happy. People will judge me, persecute me, call me names, talk behind my back, while others will praise me, honor me, respect me, spread good will about me and pray for my continued success. Everyone who truly knows me loves me, because of the value that I offer to the world. They support me financially, with connections, and resources to bring me to my goals. I am grateful for these people. I work for them, and no one else. I offer such immense value to the world that it can’t but send great things, opportunities, and people into my life. Through clarity of mind, body and spirit I have the ability to make decisions and act quickly. My mind in a conduit for learning and creating. As I learn so do I think. As I think so do I act. As I act so do I produce. I choose to act out of a desire for rather than the fear of. I am a lion that know he is a lion. I hold myself to standards of the healthy, wealthy and wise. Because that is who I am and who I am committed to being.
